1) Is there any possibily to reconstruct or deduce
PIE anthroponyms, at least the meanings?
2) The more usual form of IE anthroponyms are
compounds, like Polybios, Leukippos, Sigismund, Sus^rava, Vis^taspa,
etc.
*k^lewos "glory" > Greek
-klees Sanskrit -s^ravas Slav -slavu (? corrupted for
slovo?)
cf. Euklees = Sus^ravas- *Su-k^lewos
"good glory"
"animal-names",
horse - Leukippos, Vis^taspa, Krs^as^va, Epona,
As^vapati
bear - Bernard, Bjo¨rn, Artognos, Art, Math,
Rksha
wolf - Lykourgos, Adolf, Wulfila,
Wolfgang
etc
theophoric names
protected by god X; hero of god X, child of god X,
animal of god X etc
Thorsteinn, Thorbjo¨rn, Diomedes, Diodoros,
Theodoros, etc
3) Why did these compounds almost disappear in
Latin?
Latin preferred names like Tullus, Servius,
Hostilius, Horatius, Virgilius, Ovidius, etc
Could be the name Lucretia < *Leuko-rotH-ya
"White Wheel", parallel to Arianrhod *Argantorota "Silver Wheel".
